Good Haul

The Things had a good Halloween this year. They went up and down our street all by themselves. Sysguy accompanied them on the cross street, due to some overambitious interactive scaryness at a few houses on that street. Strangely, they're not into ToT for the big haul, more the short-term experience. They like to come home early and hand out goodies to other kids. Though it was warmish last night, so that might have had something to do with it.

I spent the evening with a good friend and a bottle of wine on my front patio, handing out candy to the trick or treaters while the guys were out, and apparently setting a bad example for public intoxication, according to Sysguy. I don't think my front yard counts as public. I think my friend was setting a bad example, since it wasn't her house. Nyah.

Here are the Things, just prior to the school parade, before the costumes made them hot and irksome. Ignore the person behind them, for some reason the best shot of them had me making an unacceptable Mrs. Kravitz face. Probably because of my itchy purple wig.

Aren't they darling! Don't they look like they could wreak havoc! It's because they can!!!
